I got this from another thread, some time ago, and it works perfect. I had no idea it was the mexdroid guys who modded it lol.

Thanks for the awesome work!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hispeedworm:
has anyone tried doing a nandroid backup from rom manager... while restoring it from recovery by restarting into hboot and loading recovery... comming from desire... over there we had an issue where the phone recovery was updated to 3.0.0.5 whiile rom manager recovery was 2.5.0.7.... so backing up or restoring from rom manager would use 2.5.0.7 recovery while direct loading of recovery would pop up with 3.0.0.5..... and this was not just a mere annoyance......

if you made backup from one recovery and tried to restore from other it would give errors......

so guys who have tried this modded recovery can you please check and than confirm or deny any issues with making nandroid backup and resotring em from alternating recoveries (ie via rom manager and direct recovery) ....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amazinglarry311:
it's open source, but the negativity is always great for the community.

koush actually encourages modifications and ports by users, that's why it's open source.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lazy361:
Imherman what is your deal? You were on mexdroids thread bashing his rom too... I've gottin into with you, and your most of the reason ghostzini is taking a vacation. Do you need antidepresents of some form? Quit being so Negative about everything.

...Your not mad at me your mad at your father!

Ha!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bmxrideher:
Hey, everyone. First of all, my thanks go out to everyone who made this possible.

...... Secondly.... After hearing the the device connect/ disconnect sounds on my computer while giving this a shot... I decided to "adb devices" and unfortunately, my phone was still in recovery.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tangiers:
Well said. It always amazes me how unpleasant some people get when this whole forum is supposed to be about having fun with our phones....

Thanks for your contribution to that purpose!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ImHerMan:
That's pretty funny. How was I bashing on his nonworking? Its called reporting a problem. You don't know common sense huh? Oh ghostzini took a break? That's good.

Don't talk crap when you don't know crap
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ImHerMan:
Fun yes. But its good to ask permission for everything
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OpenMinded:
You rock!

I have been waiting for ages for this :).

Do you know if there is one for the MT4G too?

thanks very much!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] DJ ELITE:
awesome! thanks for this!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lazy361:
The ROM worked perfectly. It was probably your lack of know how or oversight in fallowing instructions. Or as MJYBarr said... Just YOUR phone bc everyone else is enjoying it. Grow up dude. Or leave XDAalltogether. Ur the reason Mexdroid ain't on this forum anymore.

ROMs, opensource...xda....its all about having fun, learning, and helping eachother. Not negetively responding, throwing salt, or nit picking about BS. I'm done with u. You don't deserve any more responces.

...on another note, the flash worked great for me thanks AmazingLarry and MJYbarr & Saint. And Roush
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] epsiblivion:
Yeah, I'm on a G2 so this is perfect but I have friends on Glaciers (MT4G) that are chomping at the bit for a fix like this also. I don't even think for a second flashing this for them would be a good idea but is there any chance more versions for more phones will be available soon?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] potentdro:
This is something you just flash once and that is it, right?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wilnotdie:
It should be the fix that fixed this version. I read in the other forum, when this fix first came out, that it was accepted and should roll out in the next version. Idk perhaps he's just really busy or something is wrong. Owell, atleast someone fixed it for G2, whoever that was...and thanks again.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] spences10:
Nice one for this, does anyone know why koush hasnt included this in the most recent recovery?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] isikh:
Wait is this so the phone turns off and stays off?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mjybarr:
Correcto! Shut phone off and let it charge and it won't boot in cwr!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Powers88:
I'm curious why that guy was saying he could still adb even though the device wasn't showing the recovery
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ianmcquinn:
If this is the same kind of mod that damien667 did to ClockworkMod in the main Clockwork thread, then I think it's because the phone actually is still booted to a special mode of recovery, only with the screen turned off and no inputs registered.

Not sure what the Mexdroid guys did for their version of the mod though. We'll have to wait and see if one of them tells us how they modded it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] isikh:
sweet!!!!!!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bmxrideher:
It's not that I can adb. Try it. Turn your phone off, plug it into your computer via USB and type "adb devices" into your command prompt.

Like I said in my last post, I heard the device connect/ disconnect sounds when I plugged my "powered down" device into my computer. So, I decided to to investigate.

I also found that while "off" and charging, I was not able to boot into the bootloader with volume down + power.

Don't get me wrong. I really appreciate the step forward, I was just reporting my findings.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wilnotdie:
Yeah this is the one I've been using for a while... I wonder what differs from mexdroids.

Owell, either way it works lol.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OpenMinded:
Awesome work!

Unfortunately I found out that when I restored to a 2.2 ROM that it does not support that?

The original 3.0.0.5 does.

Are you sure you grabbed the right version to mod, or does the mod perhaps prevent 2.2 roms to work?

No issues witj 2.3 based miui
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] damien667:
This is disappointing... I had already modded the cwm recoveries to charge while off since back in February when 3.0.0.5 came out (and even before with 2.5)... it has been mirrored and posted all over the vision forum for cwm here on XDA and I had linked to it a million times... and then here come some assholes taking credit like they are the first ones and like this never existed before... to me it sounds like the marketing ploy from Apple...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amazinglarry311:
God, calm down, I'll add your name to the original thread,

Who took credit?

God. I'm wishing I had bought a different phone due to the way people conduct themselves in this and other g2 forums.

To be honest, you're the only one that sounds like an asshole here.

Like I said I'll add your name to the first thread and a little link so you can get the thanks you're been feaning for, other than that, if you have nothing constructive to add, you can kindly find another place else to posture.

K thanks bye.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] damien667:
Please remove my name from the credit to this recovery. I never said I did THIS one, I said I had already done this mod to a recovery since back in February.

it's a hobby, and ive had my work posted by others with no credit SEVERAL times especially at the cm forums. i do it or my own enjoyment, not to get "thanks" and "rep".

youre in here being completely negative, only seeking some kind of due thanks you think you deserve. you got it.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] damien667:
Have a nice day indeed. Please remove my name from OP.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdWRX:
Love this mod, whoever did it takes my respect :)

Been looking for this fix since cm6.1.1
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
So what's the deal with this mod? Can you still connect with adb after you turn off the phone & plug it into USB to charge?

If that's the case then (like previously mentioned) it just turns off the screen and blocks input?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amazinglarry311:
The screen is off, the phone is still recognized by a pc if plugged in.

It's not an input blocked recovery per se, as it still respond to boot time signals allowing a boot to bootloader mode if you hold volume down + power.

I assume some kernel is loaded, I don't have access to the source code, damien would be a good person to ask, or find his posts in the original recovery thread, there may be more info there.

I'm just glad not to have a huge orange gear wearing a top hot every time I turn off the phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
Thanks, just wanted to clarify what was actually happening.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] damien667:
correct, phone is on with a special command passed to the kernel to let it know it is charging while off. adb is accessible, and the phone is booted into recovery (with screen off). click on the link i posted earlier if you wanna learn more about how i did it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
recoery may be warez

I found this link that has the same recovery, but no link or credits are provided by either this thread or mexdroid. That would mean that this thread and mexdroid are both using warez which I believe to be against xda rules. http://kaiserroms.blogspot.com/
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amazinglarry311:
I hope you're joking.

Not giving credit is totally not defined as warez. Now I know you've been around a while, I know you from the magic forums, but you should definitely brush up on your definition of warez.

If anyone with some md5's something can prove they authored this without question i'll update the first thread accordingly.

Until then, can anyone *****ing about authenticity please piss off?

It's a flashable zip containing a recovery image I NEVER CLAIMED COMPILING. which is all this is, clockworkmod recovery BY KOUSH (which everyone knows) with code modifications by god knows who. Probably one line of code, 100% guaranteed that it isn't copyrighted.

K THANKS BYE.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
http://www.google.com/search?q=define:Warez&nomo=1

Here's the definitions you asked for. Make sure you read each one carefully. Let me know if there is anything else I can google for you. And it doesn't have to be copywrited to make it warez.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lazy361:
Seriously guys...

Sparksco, ur good man, real good we appreciate ur work... amazinglarry, it was very useful and convienient and gave me peace of mind when I found this flashable recovery.zip. ... Don't get dragged in to this whiney he said she said look at me attention craving proving eachother wrong mentality.

I am in no way a developer. Id love to be, but I haven't got a clue. I am a leach. I offer advice and help when I can. And ask questions and appreciate the communitys help.

Arguments, nit picking, pettty s#it... it makes the thread look bad, the forum, the developer, and the android community as a whole look silly. We need to grow up. no taddle tails...no bullys, let's just all be cool and help eachother be the best we can be. (Corny but for real). Let's not be crabs in a bucket.

Thanks again guys. Sincerily.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
My main concern is credit going to where it needs to, which is not mexdroid roms or devs. Perhaps simply changing around the op would be a good idea...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Powers88:
This is all my fault, I showed larry the mod and he was kind enough to put it into a flashable zip lol. Maybe the OP should say something like credit to the many people who have staked their claims to this mod. Done.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amazinglarry311:
Astounding, did you read your own search page?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vlad83:
Sparksco, get your facts straight... Warez only applies to copyrighted software. CWMr is open source and can be modified/redistributed by anyone. In fact, it is encouraged by Koush and the CM team. Just because it has been passed around and the person that modified the source is not identified, does not constitute as warez.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
http://androidcustomroms.com/recovery-clockwork-3.0.0.5-poweroff_charging.img

Here is the source code for the recovery for htc desire Z Koush also releases his source code for viewing, but you don't. Don't you think koush would of already fixed the issue if he was aware of a fix for it?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amazinglarry311:
Have you read any of the threads discussed here? I urge you to do so, the info on the modification if in the cwm thread, damien referenced it.

Koush has a long standing history of taking forever to fix non-critical items, some have stated that he accepted the change and will include in next release.

if cwm is covered under gpl, then yes source is required when distributing a changed binary, but if we apply this terrible logic to the entire forum, than I'm afraid your threads for sparksmod can also be considered "warez" by your definition.

Give it a rest, I wouldn't want you to look like an idiot walking out of here, seeing as how you've always been surprisingly helpful in the past and I respect your work.

Honestly even if cwm is gpl it's seriously debatable here...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vlad83:
Sparksco take your trolling back to the G1 forums. Since you're so adept at googling then google the Apache License. Anyone can do whatever they want to CWMr. If you don't trust the modified version then don't download it, its your prerogative... but don't come here as a wanna be mod claiming warez.

Damien modified CMWr in the official thread months ago. Only if you had read maybe 5 posts above yours...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vlad83:
CM is licensed under Apache just like Android. Anyone can take the code and release a proprietary bit if they so desire as long as they give credit to the original author. Since this is still CWMr and not made out to be someone else work then it's fine. If the debate is due to possible malware or whatever then thats different, but as far as distribution... this is not warez.

Is this the fix for the powering off issue I don't know if anyone else have or had this issue but when you charge your phone with the power off the phone goes into recovery.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OpenMinded:
Awesome!

Did you guys read my remark about the 2.2 roms not booting?

I was running 3.0.0.5 on my G2 and I could switch between MIUI 2.2 and 2.3 based.

Once I flashed this modded recovery and flashed back to Android 2.2 based MIUI, it would not boot.

That is similar behaviour too pre-3.0.0.5 recovery releases.

My question was/is : is this issue caused by the fix, or is this recovery not compatible with 2.2 ?

Thanks for your work, the MT4G version works like a charm!

(did not test that one with a 2.2 rom :))
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amazinglarry311:
I believe that is a clockwork issue, there were differences in how 2.5.x clockwork and 3.0.0.5 handle ext partitions. Something about ext3 vs ext4, not really sure honestly, might want to check in the main recovery thread, I believe it's been discussed.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OpenMinded:
Thank you for your quick reply.

Just pointing out I did not have the issue with the non-modded 3.0.0.5 version, but I do with this one.

I also tried the CWM 3.0.1.4 but it did not seem to work for me?

No changed in the recovery after a flash from ROM manager even.

Well, i am back to a 2.3 ROM (same MIUI) so I just flashed the zip again.

thanks a lot!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amazinglarry311:
Interesting. I'll look into it, the recovery image here was the one posted by damien so i'm nit sure what would cause that, I'll get the original 3.0.0.5 and mod it later and take a look. Ill use the roms you specified as well.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OpenMinded:
awesome, I am curious about your findings.

I used Osimood 1.2.25 if I remember correctly for the 2.2 MIUI rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] damien667:
I had posted a cwm version 2.x (I forget, but i think it was 2.5)... with this same mod applied that I used to use on cm 6.1.1.... someone mirrored it on their blog in the official cwm recovery thread...

edit: it's in the cwm recovery thread for the g2, on january 16 I posted the modded 2.5.1.3 cwm image with offmode that works with the old ext3 fs like in cm6.1.1 instead of ext4 like in cm7... and someone mirrored it afterwards
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OpenMinded:
is there a version for the Desire too?

Happy to make it if someone can explain the details

Point me in the right direction (recovery image needing modifications) and I can post an image for you to test.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Blaggah:
Is this strictly for the G2? I was wondering if this could be flashed on the HD2 running MIUI Rom or any other android based for the HD2?

recoveries are generally device specific. link me to a working or official recovery image and i can post it in your appropriate forum.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] itsnoahyo:
i guess im just backwards. i thought it was SUPPOSED to bring up cwm when off/charging as a failsafe mechanism of sorts. i went to 3.0.1.4 (i think) and it didnt do it, so i went back to 3.0.0.5. i thought the idea was that if the device was on the fritz, you could pull the battery or something, plug it in, and restore a backup. i kinda like having cwm pop up when its charging like that. its like tommy boys guarantee fairy or something.

EDIT i just realized how long this thread has been idle. sorry, folks.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianmb:
What kernel are you using...had similar problem with sense ROM due to a flashed kernel that didn't play well with custom ROM. You can try to reflash your recovery if you can find a flashable zip of it or a PC36100.IMG of it. Put on root of sdcard and flash PC36100.IMG through bootloader or flash zip through recovery. What does your recovery do when you access it...it wont let you reflash the ROM or what
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] totalanonymity:
PC36100.IMG? Don't you mean PC36IMG.zip?

Are you using Clockwork or Amon RA?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhonbra:
am using Clockwork tho
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhonbra:
it only lets me go to the bootloader but doesent let me use the recovey it takes me back to the bootloader :/
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Please be a little more specific. When you say 'but then i try recovery, and it doesnt work tho', what doe you mean? Does it hang at the white 'htc evo 4g' screen (splash screen) or does it give you a black screen with a red triangle? When you get to the bootloader, it still shows that you are indeed S-off, correct? What happens when you pull the battery, and try to boot normally? Do you have any success? If so, download ROM manager from the market, and use that to reflash whichever recovery you were using, either clockwork or amon ra ( i suggest amon ra) If you are unable to boot into the rom at all, and you're unable to access your recovery, then the first thing to try is reflashing your recovery, using the bootloader. To do that, download the PC36IMG that I'll attatch. That is Amon Ra recovery, version 2.3. Download the zip file, make 100% sure that it's named exactly PC36IMG (capitals matter), and put it on the main directory of your sd card ( you'll need to either use an sd card adapter, and put it right into your computer, or put the sd card in a different phone to transfer the file) You may be able to access the sd card using hboot usb, I don't recall at the moment. Either way, get the file on your sd card somehow. Make sure it's named right, and not in any folders. Then put the sd card back in your phone, and boot into the bootloader. The bootloader should then scan and find the PC36IMG file, and ask you if you want to update. Select volume up to say yes. Once it's done flashing, from the bootloader, select 'recovery'. You should now boot into Amon Ra recovery. From that point, I'd suggest doing a complete wipe (data/factory reset, cache, dalvik cache), and then flashing Calkulin's Format all.zip (i'll attatch it) Once you're done wiping, then reflash the ROM and Gapps. Reboot your device, and you should boot into the ROM. Good luck.

EDIT: I just saw that you were using clockwork before. I don't have a PC36IMG of clockwork, so just use Amon Ra for now. It's a better recovery, but if you must go back to clockwork, once you're phone's back up and running, you can easily use ROM manager to select 'flash clockworkmod recovery' , and that'll get you back on clockwork. just please be sure not to attempt to restore a clockwork backup using Amon Ra. That's a no no. You need to use clockwork to restore a backup that was made by clockwork. Just so ya know.
